Undiminished by time, this is a rare, rare beauty
"Three years on, 'Tigermilk' is undiminished by both time and the album's new alliance with the perfidious world of digital technology. Recorded on zips or not, this is a rare, rare beauty" 5/5 Select
Belle & Sebastian's rare debut album Tigermilk reissued via our friends at Spunk! The story so far…. Belle and Sebastian were formed in an all-night café in Glasgow, January 1996. Stuart Murdoch (singer/songwriter) and Stuart David (bass guitar) met on a government training scheme and recorded some demos, which were picked up by a Jeepster scout who was taking part in the Stow College Music Business Course. The course, run by ex-Associate Alan Rankine, produces and releases one record every year on the college label Electric Honey Records, usually a single. However in the case of Belle and Sebastian they had enough songs to record a whole album, and so the elusive Tigermilk was born. Recorded in three days and one thousand copies released on vinyl only, it now changes hands for up to £400 per copy. Um, our CD version is slightly cheaper….
